OUR WORK AWAITS US
At the mass meeting last Monday evening, Penn State students
were told the exact status of the college regarding'its financial needs
and were told of their part in securing the much-needed assistance so
that this, their college might continue to function to the best interests
of its students and the commonwealth. The arguments were con
clusive. *No room was left for doubt as to where the money needed
would be placed. The students have learned, whether they are new
men and women, spending their first year at college, or whether they
have been at Penn State for several years, of this need. It has been
common knowledge to those directly connected with the college. In
its details and absotute figures, however, few have known, with the
exception of the college authorities. -Now we all know. Therefore,
there is nothing more to do but to act accordingly and to act not only
os a unit body, but individually, and the looked-for result must come.
The problems of operating'an educational institution arc just'as
great and os numerous as those arising in any commercial undertak
ing and must be met and answered favorably if that undertaking or
institution is to continue at its best. Penn State cannot go for
ward unless she has the proper financial aid. She cannot function as
best benefits the college unless the people support her as they unques
tionably should. We believe that the citizens of Pennsylvania will aid
their state institution if they but know of its requirements. Thdre
lies one of the great difficulties Many of the citizens, especially those
who are more closely associated with their own problems and tasks
who do not give further thought to the needs of educational insti
tutions about them, must v be awakened«from their lethargy and ma'de
to realize that it is their duty as well as their great privilege to advance
this college to the place in the nation’s educational sphere that!it
rightfully should hold. Thus the problem of acquainting them of
these facts lies to a considerable extent with the student body. The
men and women at this college' and those who have passed through
its door arc the ones who are best fitted to do this work. They know'
of the conditions cxistant at Penn State and of its needs and should
be and we hope, arc desirous of making others acquainted with them.
So let us proceed to definite action. Let us organize ourselves
into groups which will include every student in the college. We do
have some of those groups at present. The county club is a medium
of much greater good than many of the students realize. Through
its agencies the people of the particular county the club represents*
may learn what ft is so necessary they should know. Therefore the
first step is to perfect the county club organizations. Let us have
no faltering in this respect. It is not the duty of a few from each
county to see that such an organization exists and holds meetings on
scheduled dates, but the duty of every individual from that county,
to accept it ns such and determine to do his utmost in spreading the
news among his peoples. Where no countv club is at present in ex
istence, let there be one formed. Penn State students, this is your
job. You must realize that white you sit and talk of all the thm£&
so necessary to your education and of others that we know we are
lacking at Penn State, you are wasting precious time which mighj
be used toward bringing thoso advantages to you and those to follow
you. Every student looks to his fellow for the signal to start the
big campaign. PUBLICITY’ Let the people know. ADVERTISE!
Tell them what Penn State is doing for them and for the state and
country,' and what they in return should do for Penn State. Make
them see that they, through this college, are indirectly helping them
selves. The matter should be placed before them in a directly personal
light, as it has been placed before the students. So, each one knows
his work. Let us enter into it with the light and spirit that is char
acteristic of Penn State men and women and put it across to the
people of the state. We cannot help but do it. It is for "our college."
The Rotarian Pilgrimage to Penn State was the opening shot of
the state-wide campaign which is being begun m the endeavor to obtain
more appropriation from the legislature this year. It demonstrated
above all, that some organization outside of one distinctly Penn State
in character is taking'an interest in the affairs of the college.
In behalf of the student body of this, the state institution of
Pennsylvania, so neglected by its legislators and its people, the COL
LEGIAN takes great pleasure in thanking the Rotanans for 'their
visit'here and feels sure that the result of it will prove of benefit to
the college and to the people of the state and county. We
are glad that they have come, have heard directly from the men who
know, of things the college is doing, how it is doing for them and how,
with proper aid'it can continue to do them and with encouragement
and enlargement, can greatly excet and enlarge upon the work al
ready done, have seen for themselves the serious handicaps the college
is at present struggling under and just where the* many improvements
can be made. ' 1
Because we know what is needed'at Penn Statc/we feel that the
Rotanans will also be convinced now that the demand of Pennsylvania
boys and girls for a larger, better state college must be met and that
it is the duty of the state to make it,such. We trust that other or
ganizations will follow the Rotarians splendid example and come to
learn of Penn State and sec what she is doing ‘and can do.

PENN STATE COLLEGIAN
OVERCONFIDENT AGAIN
The recent successes oF the varsity football team, especially after
the great game with Dartmouth, have evidently turned the heads of
Penn State students. The campus seems overrun with a spint"that
bubbles from every student, a spirit of sureness and confidence that
is detrimental, not only to the'sfudents themselves, but also to the
members of the team. The latter, however, realize, more than any
other students that the'eontest will not be an easy one,'but that it
will likely be the hardest or the season. ’Penn State students, let
us not for one minute remove our confidence in the"team 1- to play the
best brand of ball they can, but on the other hand, let us remove
from our thoughts that it is an unbeatable eleven. We* do not J want
defeat, but if it does come, let us be prepared for it. Forget all save
the fact that the game this Saturday will be a hard one, one where
both teams will put their best into it and one which will be far dif
ferent from the one which both teams played last week. Backing the
team ‘is not letting yourself overflow with confidence. It is rather
a belief in its ability, and a hope of victory. Penn State men never
give' up, neither 'do they underestimate an opponent. We're not 1 ex
ceptions.

LIVELY COMPETITION
EXPECTED. AMONG- BOXERS
Much optimism 1b being- shown by
those interested In boxing concerning
Hie possibilities of this season's team
and it is conceded that there* will bo
some lively competition among tboso
who are candidates l for berths on j tho
squad. There aro two existing vacan
cles on tho team which' will bo very
hard to 1111 That loss of both Captain
C. A. McFadden and O H. Friedman,
leading members of last year’s varsity,
is one which will be severely felt
but It is considered probablo that sev
eral who showed much promise last
season 'will do' much In overcoming
those difficulties Tho latest rules pro
vldo for both heavyweight and llght
honvywclght clushob making an addi
tional placa on tho squad.
Although thoro has been no call for
varsity men, a number of candidates
have put in their appearance, each dis
playing excellent form at this early
date. Tho competition In tho im
pound class will bo very keen. Captain
K. E. Knhloy '2l, D H. Jenkins '22. E.
P. 'llorak '23, and C. F. Eberlo ’22. bo-
Ing tho most prominent in this class.
W. D. Tate '23, is a contender for tho
123-pound vacancy while G. K. Fried
23, will endeavor to win a place in tho
135-pound class. Tho next division
is tho 145-pound and this will bo con
; tested by L. M. Cooper '2l, IV. E At
narlsh *23, and I. W. Vanßelson '22.
All three nro very aggrossivo and the
one who succeeds In winning tho ptaco
'vvlU be a hard man to defeat elsewhere.
C MV Aiken '2l, is the foremost con
tender In tho 168-pound class with- I.
G. Brown '22, and H. L.ißordnor '23'as
tho chief opponents. Of thoso who
havo shown prpmtsc. F. S Clark '23,
and H. E Weiss '22, will probably try
for tho Ilght-hoftvywc!ght section. Tho
return of C. R. Beck '22, will claim con
sideration ns heavyweight representa
tive- aUliouehVß.- L. Schuster '23, wno
showed a goodly 'portion of spced'iast
year for a largo man ‘fchould make
Beck hustle to hold tho placo.
1 The Froshman class has produced
an unusually largo ’ number of exper-
ienced boxers and they should give a
line account of thcmsolvcy whon tlioy
particlpato -in the Intor-class moot.
Coaches Berger and Harlow are both
onthuslastlc' ovor tho excellent array
of matoria! on hand and promlso some
surprises when training becomes a rea
lity. The call for candidates will be
mndo In the forepnrt of November and
It Is probablo that there will bo a largo
; number of men In addition to those
already training who will participate
In tho varsity trials.
AGRICULTURAL NOTES
An Idea! -- trip covering about ono
hundred and fifty miles was recently
made by over sixty students who nro
taking Farm Management, In order
: thnt they might visit l farms in tho
central part of 'tho state that 'would
■ bring them Into actual contact with this
subject considered undor FnrmTMunago
mont. In making this trip tho stud
ents recolved first hand Information
from successful farmers on tho effi
ciency of labor on tho farm, on gener
al crop rotations In-tho various com
munities on the vnluo of different kinds
of land, on tho olTect of soli, markets
and transportation on systems of farm
ing, and on many othor valuablo points
which can only bo secured by actunl
contact with farms In tho different
sections.
Tho following places were visited, a
farm near Center Hall owned by W. F.
Rlshcfl, who is a brooder of pure bred
I'erehcrons 1 and Holstein cattle, the
famous truck garden of Charles Smith
situated near Lewiston, .tho poultry
farm of W. B. Wilson located in Lew
iston; tho famous IClshlcoqulllas or
Big * Valley ‘■which Is conceded to bo
one of tho beat farming rcglohs In tho
state, tho fruit -farm of John Rung
situated hear’ Huntingdon; tho notod
Arch Springs and Cave In Sinking Val
ley; and flnall) tho general crop and
livestock farm .of J. W. Burkett.
It Is felt that tho trip was qulto
holpful in'bringing the students and
farmers Into closer relationship and
hotter understanding with each other
On Wednesday afternoon Dr. R. M
Stewart, Professor of Rural Education
-at Cornell' University, spoko to the
Most Good'Dressers Bring
Their clothos to us for cleaning, pres
sing and repairing. They havo forb
